Juicy Dirt From The Comment Section

This juicy little diatribe showed up on the Beware post about Scary's new man yesterday and boy does it ring true......
When Scary met Eddie...She was coasting into the gas station on the last fumes of her music money. She wasn't broke? Not technically, but she'd had to part with a substantial portion of her fortune when she divorced Jimmy Gulzar and she knew her high-income earning days were long past. At the time she met Murphy, no one was even thinking about a Spice Girls reunion tour, so Scary was on the hunt. Early on it was all good. Problem was, the "relationship" was over before it really had a chance to take off. Scary's positives: her humor, raunchy sex appeal and British accent were overshadowed by an unfortunate truth: she's as common as dirt: loud, tacky and two steps up from the ghetto. Murphy's kids didn't care for her and after she argued with his mother, Murphy decided Scary was done. No explanation necessary. He simply stopped returning her calls. Within days he began to hear rumors that she was pregnant with his baby. Rumors that Murphy simply couldn't believe because hadn't Scary assured him she was on birth control pills before the handful of times they'd had sex? So, when a Dutch reporter questioned him about the baby, Eddie snapped. But deep down he knew. He knew that Mel B had played him like a violin, just as Elizabeth Hurley had likewise played billionaire Stephen Bing.
Months later DNA test results revealed the truth: Eddie was the father of Mel B's baby and she'd made it clear she had played to win. She stepped up her public relations game by talking to anyone who would listen about how Eddie Murphy had done her wrong; she floated the false rumor that she had decided to name her baby girl Daphne "Fortuna" Bay; and had, incredibly, succeeded in having her labor induced—just minutes after midnight—on Eddie Murphy's birthday. By now no one could doubt Mel's seriousness about getting paid. While Murphy had never seriously considered the idea of marrying her—let alone fathering her baby—Mel spun their brief relationship into an engagement gone bad. She demeaned him in public statements every opportunity she could and began laying a groundwork of suspicion about Murphy's "lifestyle," in addition to alleging that the size of his manhood was insufficient to meet her needs. Enter Mr. not-the-son-of-Harry Belafonte, aka Stephen Stansbury. If it's true that like attracts like, then Scary and Stephen are made for each other. Both are street-smart, complicated players with very checkered-pasts. For Mel B, it's a relationship based as much on her wounded pride as anything else. She'd been very publicly dumped by a movie star, and after she proved capable of tricking him into a serious financial obligation, she was branded used and dangerous goods by anyone noteworthy who otherwise might have considered dating her.
Ironically, Mel's big Eddie payday comes just at the time her music career seems on the upswing. With a concert tour scheduled for the fall, she may once again find herself with a fat bank account. Even considering that, her wealth is still microscopic when compared to her band-mate Posh, or Eddie, for that matter, but Scary's expanded purse will prove more than adequate to keep Mr. Bela-whomever in the picture, at least for the moment. Remembering how badly she has been burned by California's community property laws in the past, it will be interesting to see how she conducts her business and personal affairs in the future. As far as Murphy is concerned, it's a closed chapter. When push came to shove he was able to demand that Scary take-or-leave a (hefty) lump sum support payment to bring the matter to a quick close. He has no intention of building a relationship with baby Angel at this time, since that would mean dealing with her mother. But it's probably a safe bet that the public has not yet heard the last of this story, at least from the standpoint of Mel B. Her ways of fighting for what she wants are straight from the gutter and those tactics have served her very well.

Fellaz, if a female says she is on the pill, wear a condom or pull out if ya know how. You will be so trapped, your haed will spin. I am now on Eddie's side because he did ask her if she was on the pill. This publicity stunt is not about her daughter, it is so that she can be in the limelight again. Now that people remember her because of all of this drama, the Spice Girls will get back together for a reunion and all of that other b.s. I am a female and I know that other females can be grimey, that is why I do not f**k with them. Even though Eddie was tricked, he is old enough to know that a woman is capable of doing anything. I can see if he was a 17 yr. old high school student who knew no better.

THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I WAS SCREAMING!!!! I do believe every single syllable!

Yeah, yeah, she's a ho-bag tramp who bagged herself a movie star. But don't hump bitches without condoms if you don't want to fall the fool. Eddie was dumb. Instead of saying, damn...yeah, she got me. Let's work this out on the low. He tried to play the loud mouth and got further humiliated.

I don't care if the chick's a Vatican Nun, slip it on. It ain't nobody's responsibility to protect your assets but you. Men need to stop believing this birth control shit when a pill won't protect your nuts from shriveling off!! Same goes for my sistas who get trapped up by a no good baby making machine that stay gunning to spread his seed to the universe! (James Brown, I'm talking about your dead ass too!)

The only person I feel sorry for is an innocent baby is in the mix of all of this. This game has been played time and time again. When will people wisen up?

YOU NEVER KNOW! This just might be the truth. This shit is so ghetto though....you would think folks with money have a little more sense. Even though Scary doesn't have as much as she used to, I'm sure she has enough.

I guess. But I am sure Eddie's spin people put this story out in the atmosphere. I am going to choose to believe somewhere down the middle of both stories. Eddie ain't no saint, and neither is Mel. Nicole met with her the other day, didn't she? Looks like she may have choosen sides. Interesting.

DAMMMMM,you make it seem like poor Eddy Murphy had no part in any of this,like he's mister innocent.The way I see it,he lays he pay's.It still don't change the fact that this is his child,alot of men see there children without having to deal with the mother.That's what lawyers and courts are for.Stop protecting him he needs to stand up and be a father to the child and stop acting like an ass.The child didn't ask for this,all the crap I've read about him over the years.You can't tell me that he didn't know there was a chance that someone out there was going to try and take advantage of his stardom.He's a fool that he didn't protect himself better,like all men he just couldn't keep it in his pants.I for one think he needs to pay through his teeth,next time he will be more careful where he sticks his packer at.

Seems funny that all of a sudden it's all Mel's fault and she played him. Eddie is NO dummy. He is very smart and experienced in the business. Plus, look at his actions! Engaged to another woman so soon? Uh huh.

The Spice girls were one of the biggest international groups of all time. They each got paid 20 mil just to do a reunion tour with a few dates. marriage or no marrigae, she wasn't no where near broke.

It's always the woman's fault, eh? Nah, what happened was, Eddie decided to get someone to post that bs b/c he doesn't want his "lifestyle" exposed. He's trying to intercept Scary's truth telling. And if she was so ghetto and beneath him, why fuck her rubber free.

No Eddie is no mister innocent but Mel B is out there telling the whole world that this is all Eddies fault and she pretends to be this SAINT who LOVED Eddie more than anything, but he played her, he hurt her feelings and bla bla bla bla bla. I don't buy all that ish.

It takes two to tango...Both of them are guilyt of shady behaviour but I woludn't be surprised if Mel B is the REAL dramaqueen in this whle mess.

OH Please!!! Women always blame men. It's always been like that. It could never be the womans fault according to a woman, that's why all the these women defend Mel to the fullest. Mel B ain't no saint you know.

I agree with whoever said that someone in Eddie's camp put this story out there. Don't believe the hype y'all! And it's so interesting how it seems to be okay with everyone that he tried to "pay off" Mel B. I don't care how much money was offered, you don't get away with neglecting your child! You can't put a price on the love and attention that that baby truly deserves. And he is not the first baby daddy who doesn't want to deal with the child's mother. There are ways to get around that. He just does not want to own up to his responsibilties and that is the real reason for why he has been acting like a jerk!

Sounds like Eddie's statement.The point is her went on a vacation to Hawaii with her and his kids. Eddie needs to step up and be a man. He did the exact samething before he married his first wife. He said he didn't have a son by another woman and he does.Everyone knows about Eddie's lifestyle it's not a secret.

Makes sense. I still don't care for Eddie, but I've BEEN sort of suspicious of her true intentions with all the media whoring she's been engaged in. It just looks sloppy, and nothing about this situation has been handled with class or discretion in either camp.

Have you ever been soooo mad that you did whatever you could to get a message across to someone else? I think that is where Mel B is. I don't a damn what is going on, that's his baby. Yeah, you swam all up in it with no protection, so here you go. Take that baby for your troubles. Now all of a sudden it's all on her? I don't think so. She stayed quiet for a long time. After she had the baby, she probably thought Eddie would at least step up to the plate and say it was his. She's had to fight him to admit that. So now, hell hath no fury.......you know the rest.

All u broads alwayz defend the bitch!!! That's right I said it!! I don't blame him for having nothing 2 do with that baby. Mama's baby, Daddy's maybe. Mel B didn't crack one joke or say one line in a movie and she should get his paper???? Screw all u hoes!!! If u decide 2 have a kid on your own and the guy doesn't want it... U should pay for the kid yourself period!!! These child support laws are some bullshit!!! Just because if a woman decides she wants to be weak in life and I have a child by her, the man has 2 support a grown muthafucka???? Now that's ome bullshit!!

This whole article is about how Mel was a gold digger trying to take Eddie for a ride... the author of this is a big time hater. No one knows if Eddies kids liked her, and no one knows if her 8y daughter liked him. Even if shes running low on Spice girl money from the past, she looks like shes doing fine. Eddies the assh*le here because hes denying his child a father. Shelly again...

tell tracy edmonds to mind her business and stop posting on the blog site in support of her man. she has been smelling like roses this whole time and boom now some shit comes out??? please. all of this would have been surfaced if it was true this is a stunt by the eddie pr camp bec the childrends mothers went to lunch and looked fine. and eddie has been looking like a dogs ass. so lets make him the victim so he is not black listed in hollywood.

i still do not feel bad for ed. why is this just coming out?? come on. ed still should have used a condom and he would not be in this situation. as for miss elizabeth hurley she did not play that man. elizabeth had her own dough. come to find out that "rich man" had a history of making babies and saying they were not his because he did not want to give up any dough. when elizabeth had her son, it came out that mr. moneybags had a 10 year daughter that he had claimed was not his but the DNA proved he was "the father" so mr. moneybags had just started paying child support for his daughter. elizabeth hurley did not ask for any money and she has moved on and married someone else.these men need to stop having unprotected sex with these women. use a condom. if you do not want to pass of your money for the next 21 years wrap it up son.

if you do not want to pass of your money for the next 21 years wrap it up son.

4:53 PM

Good advice for every man, and obviously, if Eddie knew what he knows now about Melanie, he wouldn't have gotten within 50 feet of her ass without armoring himself with a condom made from Space Shuttle heat-shield tiles.

As for Elizabeth Hurley, she did play Mr. Bing. Bigtime. She took her battle underground after he questioned publicly whether he was really the boy's father (he was).

While Liz publicly stated she wanted no money from him, their lawyers arranged for a trust to be established for their son, and Elizabeth, with her reputation more-or-less intact, was able to move on to another rich dude, who did eventually marry her.

She had the last laugh, though. She named Bing's son "Damien." As in spawn-of-the-devil.

Mel should be glad Eddie only left her with a baby. AIDS is very real and these people having unportected sex is scary. Eddie is high profile and know he can be targeted for shakedowns he should have been more careful.Everyone knows Mels reputation so all this is no surprise. These people need to think about what they are doing because they are setting the example for our future generations. No wonder there is so much dysfunction in the world.

I Guess Anonymous Folks are Getting Paid Under the Table Dodgin' that Child Support, huh? Damn.

Had Eddie handled his business like Chris Rock, none of this shit would've happened. The backlash on Eddie is how he handled it. I'm not sure if these are Eddie's folks putting this out, but it does sound believable. I don't think Mel's innocent. Infact, she needs her ass whooped for fuckin' a man with a "questionable alternative lifestyle" with no condom too. But seeming that that was the plan....

Damn, no wonder Stanky Spice almost dropped Baby Angel Iris... Don't nobody want that baby. It's like Mel had a flashback, saw Eddie on top of her and damn near dropped that baby like a sack of yams. Me personally, I like the name Daphne Tuna better. It has a nice ring to it. I don't know bout ya'll but I'm scalping those Spice Girls tickets the moment it hits Ticketmaster. You know that show, gone be hot. And how sad is it for a dude to try to pass himself off as Harry Belafonte's son just cuz he's lightskinned? That's like me trying to pass myself off as Sam Cassell's daughter cuz I'm ugly.

How short our memories seem to be. Do y'all remember that there were rumors about Eddies'friends/family telling him to slow down? They stated his relationship with Mel was moving too fast because he just got divorced. They were supposedly going to get married and that news came out BEFORE she got pregnant. Later on, there was rumors that he had her followed and there was pics of her w/another man (white guy on the beach). That's what led him to believe the baby wasn't his. When Eddie dumped her on TV, he already knew she was pregnant. All he had to say was Mel and I are looking forward to our future. It would have stopped all this non-sense without going into any detail. It's funny how his reps say he never comments about his personal life but he went on TV to blast Mel and to deny their baby. The reason why she's so angry and vindictive now has everything to do with how he handled her pregnancy. He implied that she was sleeping around when everyone knew they were a couple. Now this statement is calling her a jump off and that's just bull. I expect Mel to act the fool even more after she gets wind of this.

I'm sorry but none of us know the whole story. It's stupid to pick a side and just blame the other part. Remember there are always two sides to a story and like someone else said earlier the truth is probably somewhere in the middle.

Basically, who gives a damn if she was on the hunt? If Eddie didn't want to get played, he should have took care of business. Why hasn't he had a vasectomy anyway, he has enough kids. All that crap about he thought she was on the pill was just that: crap. If his account is to be believed, then she was little more than a casual girlfriend yet he trust her enough to put his future in her hands. Well he should have got burned, the stupid mothafu#$#@. Not that I believe all his garbage, nuh-uh. Eddie has been in the game enough to have met a thousand Scary Spice's, I don't believe for one minute that if she is a common schemer as portrayed here then he should have seen her coming. Give me a fuckin' break!

EDDIE IS A DUMB ASS GROWN MAN!!! HE KNOW'S HOW MUCH HE IS WORTH AND DUMB ENOUGH TO GET CAUGHT UP JUST LIKE ANY OTHER STUPID ASS FOOL! GAME OVER AND HE GOT PLAYED, NOW SHUT UP AND PAY UP AND STOP EMBARRASSING URSELF NICCA!

I'm a black woman - and I'm sick of all of these sisters trying to put 100% of the blame on Eddie for this mess. Why are there sooo many sisters NOT willing to be grown enough to own up to THEIR side in these situations? It is a blessing - not a burden - to have the freedom and power to take responsibility for our own bodies and our own decisions. Those privileges belong to US - yet so many of us are too willing to hand those powers away to men that haven't proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that they genuinely love us and want to be by our sides for life.

C'mon - Mel B. handed alot of her power to Eddie for what? A child support check? What a lousy trade-off. I wish I would go through 9-10 grueling months of labor and 18-21 years of my precious time and freedom birthing and raising a child by a nobody guy that I've only been seeing for 8 weeks. A guy who barely knows me and who I barely know. Only a man who loves me AND who gives me his last name deserves THOSE privileges. And even if things didn't work out and we divorced - we STILL would have made the best effort possible to have a stable marriage and family. Self-love and respect is priceless - FAR more valuable than a check.

Anonymous said... LMAO...Eddie is not a serialkiller or something like that. He will not be blacklisted in Hollywood because he doesn't go and see his daughter. WTF some of y'all take this situation way too seriously.

4:03 PM --------------------------------Sure won't. His life will continue on, he will pay the child support, and he will make more money. He'll marry Tracy and keep it moving.

If Eddie did have a vacetomy, he needs to sue his doctor!

7:56 PM -------------------------------I remember those stories last year - when the tabloids in the UK published those pics of her and that guy kissing on the beach during the time she was dating Eddie.

Eddie definitely should have been protecting himself. And if Mel B. suspected that Eddie is bisexual, then it makes her look EVEN MORE trifling to be sleeping with Eddie with no protection. Like some have mentioned, she better hope that a baby is all she had received from Eddie.

Lump sum payments are common in rich paternity case situations, keeps dudes out of court. In a situation like this, where Eddie already has a rack of kids at least some of his assets are protected. Why he hasn't had a vasectomy is beyond me. Fuck that baby making shit. He could at least do like Mel Gibson and go overseas and handle his business.

•How to Flush an Oscar Down the Toilet•Last year should have been the best year of Eddie Murphy's life.

Pushing fifty, he was a member of a select and exclusive club: he was, as he has been for two decades, a successful, bankable, A-list Hollywood star. As a black man he is among the rarest of the rare.

And yet despite his accomplishments, what he craves most is the thing that seems beyond him: recognition and respect. But last summer the future was looking up. After the largely amicable end to his marriage to Nicole Mitchell, he had begun dating Melanie Brown—the former pop music star who was younger, fearless and at least in the beginning, very good for Eddie's enormous ego.

Additionally, he'd completed what he considers to be the best work of his career: his serious dramatic role in "Dreamgirls," for which Murphy believed he should win an Academy Award (and for which he did eventually receive a nomination). The Oscar win, or so Eddie thought, was in the bag. Then all of it went straight to hell.

The root of the problem—though he will never ever admit it—is Eddie himself. Though it's true he's made a lot of money for a lot of people over the years, he's also made countless enemies. Straight up, Eddie's not a nice guy. Not by a long shot. Not the best personality to have, when, as anyone in Hollywood will tell you, the Oscar race is probably the world's most lucrative (and superficial) popularity contest.

To Eddie, of course, it is much more. It is the signifier that white Hollywood is finally giving him what he believes is long overdue. On paper, he's exceeded all the professional requirements and then some; he's an experienced, solid actor who considers himself an artist. In reality the word on Eddie is much more crude: Murphy's reputation among a number of people in the business, black and white, is that he's a nasty, mean-spirited prick.

So when the time came to mark Oscar ballots, many Academy members saw that the high-velocity winds and destruction blowing around Murphy known as Hurricane Scary were more than reason enough to cast their votes for someone else. Years before he'd just barely dodged a fatal career bullet after the scandal involving his connection to a transvestite hooker, though by 2006 that had pretty much blown over. But Mel B's baby-mama drama caught Murphy square in the upper back. The price he'll pay for believing her lies and failing to protect himself goes far beyond a support check.

In what is essentially a very conservative (at least appearance-wise) town, the implications of Eddie's dismissive behavior toward Mel B and the negative stereotypes about black men in general which that behavior reinforced, merely added more gasoline to the bonfire of the Hollywood establishment's deeply felt dislike of Eddie Murphy.

Perhaps the most pathetic aspect of it is that right up until the reading of the winner's name, Eddie really believed he was the favorite and that his devastating and humiliating loss to the popular, Jewish, veteran character-actor Alan Arkin meant he'd been "robbed."

"Karma" is what Scary Brown would call it, and for a brief time that was just one of the several fuck-you-Eddie names she was only half-jokingly considering for her new baby.

DID SHE RAPE EDDIE??? No I dont think so. They both made the decision to have sex. Yes its shady that they didnt wear condoms (STD'S dont care if your famous)but Eddie should have known better. He is a rich man. Hasn't he heard of the baby daddy scam??? She played this nigga like a fiddle and she did it well. They are BOTH wrong. But she gonna get payed. Don't hate the playa, hate the game. P.S. She is always in public with the baby. Doesn't she have another child?

I tell you this truly is man's world. Why is it that everytime a women gets pregnant she's the one being blamed? Eddie has five kids and Mel had one. They both known where babies come from before that laid up with each other without protection.

Who knows what the truth is. But we all know that Eddie wasn't raped. He got that girl pregnant by his own feel will.

Since I was a young girl in highschool when the Spice girls came out I could tell she was one wild ghetto ass chick. I liked her though, but her lack of class was always known. Men always want to chase around the most unsuitable women because they think that they are going to get a great fuck. All women know the birth control trick, Ediie knew better, all men know better.

Here's the news you won't see anywhere, because Scary is more concerned with her purse than her new baby's safety: the new boyfriend beat the living hell out of her recently IN FRONT OF HER 'STAFF' while the baby was in the room. No one did anything about it and she didn't do anything to protect herself or her kids. Now, that's SCARY.

I don't know...I think that this whole thing is a hot mess. I heard that Eddie and her were hinting towards marriage when we first heard of them hooking up last year, and after she met his kids, and supposedly told off Vivian, Eddie's mother, the shit wasn't working out...so all of a sudden she comes up preggers right after he came out of a marriage and before Dream Girls, the movie studio and Eddie both did not want the drama. Mel B did not need the money. They have been planning a Spice Girl Reunion for over a year now, and they all knew they were going to get paid mad dough..so she did not need Eddie's money as someone already mentioned.

I just don't understand why Eddie just don't tell the truth, there is no way in this day and age, you don't let a dude hit it raw, if you are not in a monogamous or committed relationship, especially if the two of you are not fixed!

Just admit the shit didn't work out Eddie and step up and be a dad! She'll probably get a 6 to 10 million dollar settlement out of Eddie and he doesn't want nothing to do with the child until she is old enough for her to see what is going on.

In a way, I don't think it is right for her to be out there with the baby "here and there" all in the media and calling him out in the media like this and she expects to have a civil relationship for her child and him. If she really cares about this baby, she should shut up and give him a chance to know the child, and if he doesn't then air his azz out!

Booooooo get out of here, who was that Eddie's peoples? Me don't believe them, they need more people. So you mean she's that fertile that she can trap his ass that quick with a baby? Scary is not a spring chicken you know. Being from the gutter isn't a prerequisite of child support gold digging 101 either. He doesn't have to even deal with Scary to see his child if he wanted to, unless maybe if she is breastfeeding, which I doubt. That's a lame excuse to not want to see his child. He should have strapped up. Nice pr move Eddie, but I'm not buying it.

Granted, Eddie Murphy is not the most sympathetic of characters. Far from it. And clearly he made a mistake with Scary B, but his new daughter will be very well provided for by Eddie, and after all, that really is the most important thing.

What rankles him—and it's completely understandable why it should—is that he never had ANY intention of creating a child with this woman. She told him she was protected against conception by birth control; SHE LIED. The story she's spinning now, that the baby was planned (by BOTH of them) and that Eddie planned to marry her borders on science fiction.

The laws in such cases are structured to protect the interests of minor children, and that's as it should be. But as Eddie and every reasonable person knows, too often the mother in question takes advantage by demanding from the father exorbitant and extortionate sums of money for "child support."

Murphy realizes this and having already made financial provisions for baby Angel, he's not going to make it any easier for Scary to land her big payoff. It could happen to any man; a RICH man is an even more obvious and frequent target.

Luckily for Mel B, an opportunistic media-junkie like Gloria Allred is only too happy to take the case on a contingency-fee basis. But now Murphy has TWO harpies trashing him and shaking him down for money.
